Oh wow. I’m so incredibly sorry. This economy is such an incredible wreck. I’m a newspaper reporter (which s quite possibly the worst industry to be in right now) and I’m living in total fear of the same situation.

Something will come along for you. There’s always something around the corner you know?

Miss SoonToBee: I’m with you. I’m a newspaper reporter and everyone at the paper lives in fear of another round of layoffs. The paper had its first-ever (in 125 years!) layoffs on my birthday last year (thank goodness I was off and not laidoff). And they said more might come, but are doing their best to not do another round.

IrishGirl: I have the worst sick feeling in my stomach for you. Gosh, that’s terrible. Just like everyone else, it’s a good thing the wedding is over, paid for and a very happy memory.

A friend who was laidoff decided to make the most of it. He wanted to start a company in about two years, so the timeline just moved up. What is something that you planned to do in the next couple of years that you could shoot for now?
